Hauling nuts into the chicane is the best part. With the Porsche club, we didn't run Club, we ran Pro, so I only got a day and a half of Club. Just seems counter of what you would think could happen. You turn in full throttle and brake at/past the first apex. Let the car slide, pick up the throttle once you are aimed at the next apex, then into the keyhole, down a gear, a tad of trail brake, let it float out, get it "straight", to the floor!

That track look pretty fun! I feel like there would be some "offs" on the left hander that had the low to high to low elevation change.

Re: Offical eH squad list.
There was a big one there on the Friday before I got there. A guy trailered his 2010ish Carrera up from Texas. First time on Mid Ohio, first session, too fast in and donezo into the outside wall over the crest. Broke all the passenger side suspension, creased the roof, etc. Basically, a write off, I guess he had track insurance, but still.

Re: Offical eH squad list.
Yep, he man'd up big time. Ashley and I heard it, we both said, that isn't good. A few minutes later, he rolled in. Adam Jabaay walled it, last year, at CMP. So, I had been in the shoes before. Jason got out, threw his neck brace, then I pated him on the back, and let him be. He threw his helmet, then his GoPro, and went to his truck. He was there for less than 5 minutes. He came back and said, time to fix it. He pulled the fender and the quarter, drove it around, and it had a pull. He got Jabaay's toe plates, fixed the alignment, and took it out later that day. Props for sure.

Re: Offical eH squad list.
A couple of things I'd like to touch on Brad:
-That ITR is a sad sight. I cant imagine how pissed he was. Yes I realize that its a risk you take and you are supposed to know that it can actually happen, but you actually really never expect to be in his shoes.. Super suckage.
-I have been wondering why you dont have the slips on the back of your hatch? Any reason in particular?
-Bailynn is growing up fast!!!!!!!!!!!!
-What kind of valve cover is on the hatch?

He was pissed for about 5 minutes, then he got to working on it. He was golden like a shower.

I used to run 225/45 on a 7.5 in the front and 205/50 in the rear on a 7. Wearing tires at different rates got old, quick. I wanted to run 225/45 on 7s to square the set up and make tire rotating easier. So, the Konigs were the cheapest route to match up with the same size and offset.
-Bailynn is growing up fast!!!!!!!!!!!!
Correct. So awesome!
-What kind of valve cover is on the hatch?
Not the one that you got me. I still need a spark plug cover.

Don't worry, I swear Bai is almost to my hip, at almost 3. haha. She shouldn't be too tall considering the parents.

Re: Offical eH squad list.
If those "gymnastics" classes are anything like the ones we put Bai in, you are wasting your money. haha. Paying to use someone else's play space. lol.
